#learningcurve ,writing my book was a massive one! This #dandelion project took four attempts. I wanted it on velvet at first in yellow silk embroidery, it really didn't work as the pile was too high, but I tried again with blue backing silk and this time the application of the sequins let me down, this was attempted again before I finally cracked it with white silk thread, less sequins more simply attached and a red backing silk. #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker2020 #18thcenturycostume #embroideredcostume #antiquebuttons #embroideredbuttons #silkembroidery #silkthread #dandelionembroidery #embroideredwaistcoat https://www.instagram.com/p/B9n2yLiImNJ/?igshid=owncmny858r4
